Christopher Lloyd up for 'Rabbit' sequel

Christopher Lloyd has said that he would love to reprise his role as Judge Doom in a sequel to Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

The Santa Buddies star played the character in the Robert Zemeckis-directed 1988 fantasy comedy which combined traditional animation with live action.

When asked if he had been approached to appear in a mooted update, Lloyd told DS: "I haven't. I know Bob Zemeckis of course, we're sort of neighbours in California and I just saw him the other day.

"Some of the people that work for him, co-producers, have mentioned it but nobody's come to me to say, 'We're doing another one, we'd like you to be in it', yet. I would absolutely love to though, yes. No doubt about it."

Regarding the planned use of digital imaging and motion capture technology on a new Roger Rabbit movie, he added: "I'm not too aware of how it works, but that's cool.

"In this day and age you're not going to go back to painting each little part of each little frame. It's too expensive I'm sure - so I've got no complaints with it."
